Services
HOUSEKEEPING
You will enjoy top-notch hotel level services whilst staying at the villa. Included are daily cleaning and tuck down service, as well as a change of your bed linnen twice a week.
Sit down and have your breakfast, lunch and dinner served at the table whilst you enjoy the views over a refreshing drink.
The
CATERING
Our Chef will cook as instructed. We usually organize the first shopping for our guests on demand so that there is no need to think about groceries upon arrival. After that, everything can be found in local markets or shops. The staff can organize grocery shopping for you. Or you can join them for an flavorful African ‘market’ experience!
Discovering the ” night market ” in the late afternoon at the nearby Kinyasini village is a superb experience . 15 min drive only !
REMEMBER !!
We do not take any profits on the catering, food or beverages.
Eg. Your cost for a soft drink or beer would be $0.5 versus $3 in a hotel.
The
PRIVATE CHEF
Whilst staying in the villa, we strongly encourage you to take advantage of the services of our private chef, Pamela. This service is not included in the rental price but can be included in your stay for $25 per day. We highly recommend our chef’s expert cooking and delicious dishes.
Private cooking lessons
Should you wish to ‘upscale’ your African cooking game, our chef would be more than happy to give you private cooking lessons. Learn how to make excellent African dishes using only local ingredients in our fully equipped kitchen.
